It's easy to remember a moment where a player fired a sick shot, because most players do at times in their career. But if you want to know who is better at scoring goals, then you have to delve into the stats to see who has actually been able to put it in the net.

Over the past six seasons Pyatt has scored more 5v5 goals per minute, has maintained a significantly higher shooting percentage, and averages more shots and shot attempts per minute. The same holds true for every possible chosen period, except last season where Dorsett was slightly ahead of Pyatt. But considering the small sample, especially Dorsett's who was injured it hardly outweighs Pyatt's superiority over the years.

I don't really think either player's primary value comes from their goalscoring. Pyatt may be a better shooter than Dorsett, but these are two players who's primary value comes from forechecking, hitting and generally affecting the momentum while keeping up good defense.

Dorsett is a far superior player in every capacity except goal scoring, and both players are not really goal scorers, so the importance of the point is very little.
